iSpot Japan takes you on a journey across the land of the rising sun, explaining facts and curiosities about Japanese culture, while you play the classic “Spot the Difference” game in the country’s most beautiful locations.

Find 3, 4 or 5 differences in each picture, depending on the selected difficulty level, to unlock all of the locations. Once unlocked, head to the gallery to lean about Japanese lifestyle, local cuisine, historical characters or important monuments, together with their location in the map.

Ranging from southern Kyushu to northern Hokkaido, you’ll get to know all of Japan through exclusive beautiful pictures (no stock photos!) personally taken by the members of our team and carefully tricked to create visually challenging differences.

iSpot Japan is already in Beta version, so expect more details to come soon!

Update (3-06-2010):

Here is the final design of the iSpot Japan's icon, featuring the beautiful Tori gate of Itsukushima

Beta testing is going as planned, so we're aiming for a mid June release.

We hope you find it interesting and look forward to reading your opinions!

In-app purchases? No thanks. That's preposterous, specially for an app like this.

I'll pass.

Well, as Songbird stated, having a free initial pack and the chance to upgrade to the full game via in-app purchase is virtually the same as having a free Lite version and a full paid one. I can't see how that can be preposterous in any kind of game, since it applies to almost every iPhone title.

To clear things up, the in-app purchase is a single one, containing all the pictures in the game.

Price of the full version?
For some odd reason people seem to dislike the word in-app purchase without thinking into it too much.
